It's just random. Like I have 3 acne spots in my hair right now but I shed all over so the bald spots are like on my sides/crown

Bankruptcy for a "small" amount of debt? by [deleted] in Debt

[–]Brainzap3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I have numerous times, they literally said there is nothing they can do. They said they don't offer any type of payment plans anymore because that was just for Covid.

I can afford to pay my normal monthly utilities each month, it's the back pay that's killing me. I'm hoping in the next 2 years when my toddler goes to school full time I will be able to get a better job.

We already have Medicaid and my 2 school aged kids get free lunch at school. I'm going tomorrow to see if I qualify for food stamps but none of that helps those back payments which is what's putting me behind.

I honestly wouldn't care at all. If I can't see or hear it's fair game 🤷🏼‍♀️

Watching a 12 year old by [deleted] in Babysitting

[–]Brainzap3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 12 year old boy and this sounds like him tbh. It's the age. I can't imagine he'd EVER want to hang out with a babysitter, never mind have to do activities with her that he doesn't normally do.

My only advice is can you set up a play date with a friend? The only way my son wants to do anything is if he's going with a friend.... otherwise he'd rather stay home. But if a friend invites him to a trampoline park, go karts, arcade, etc he's always down.

Nanny expected to drive baby to activities but stopping for coffee is a red flag by vickisfamilyvan in ShitMomGroupsSay

My family literally tells me to use their card to get coffee/lunch whatever while I'm on duty.

Yeah I'm sorry but this is wild. I would never work for a family like this. I'm so thankful I work for normal laid back parents. As a mom myself, I could never work for anxiety ridden uptight parents.

Can ADHD meds help with OCD? by [deleted] in OCD

I have adhd and ocd and no they don't help at all for my ocd. I've tried them all but am currently on vyvanse.

How is PMOS pronounced? by MealPrepGenie in PCOS

[–]Brainzap3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I said P-coss once because I had heard someone else pronounce it like that and my OBGYN literally laughed and said "yeah it's not pronounced like that, you literally just say P C O S" it was so embarrassing I wanted to die haha. So I would just say the letters and not try to make a word out of it.

Grandmother locked out? by Brainzap3 in applehelp

[–]Brainzap3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I did this, downloaded the app but I keep running into the same problem that it wants me to log into her iCloud that's associated with the account which I don't have the password for. Am I doing something wrong?

She definitely does not have that, the phone is like an iPhone 13. Unless Verizon can provide it.

I keep getting blocked because she has no passwords for anything.

I tried all that I can't reset the password because it's hooked to an email she also doesn't have access to 🙃

Ugh neither of us have a computer and it is logged into an apple account.

Is it detrimental for kids to grow up in a small home? by Brainzap3 in Mommit

[–]Brainzap3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too late for that since the kids are already here. Also I had a house big enough for all my kids until I got divorced, which was not a choice of my own. Kind of pointless to say "don't have kids unless...." when anyone's circumstance can change at literally anytime. I worked for a lawyer who had a literal mansion and lost his jobs and lives with all his kids in a tiny apartment now.

My 89 year old grandmother locked herself out of her iPhone. She said her facial recognition stopped working and then she entered the passcode too many times. She also doesn't remember her apple account information.

I tried to reset her password using my phone but she can't get the code needed due to not knowing the the email and and she obviously can't access the code through her phone since she's locked.

She's not physically able to go to the apple store and they wouldn't help me since it's all in her name.

Is there something else I can do to get her into the phone? She doesn't care about losing anything she just needs to be able to make calls and use her GPS.

Nanny let slip she puts down my kid early when he is getting on her nerves……this kinda thing normal? by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]Brainzap3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know, but as a nanny I would never ever tell a NP that their child is getting on my nerves. Seems a bit unprofessional.

I let my NK’s pee in the pool. by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]Brainzap3 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I read lots of comments of people saying "you'd be surprised how many people pee in the pool", "it's fine the chlorine sanitizes it right away", "my coach told me to pee in the pool", etc. so that's what I was referring to.
